Speaking to ENA, Beyene Gebremeskel, Deputy Head of Mission at the Ethiopian Embassy in the UK said the training would enable them to be successful in the activities to promote the national interest of Ethiopia.
The training is part of the reform in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and designed to capacitate diplomats in their efforts to run their diplomatic activities by exactly knowing the realities and current situations in the country, he added.
